Restoration of a small ax, where I restore an ax with two blades, this ax sent me a subscriber, I don’t even know where this ax came from, maybe it was used as a souvenir
ABOUT THE AXE
It is an axe with two blades, most likely a souvenir and handmade and the edges are not identical The hole for the handle of the axe is offset consists of two metal axe itself is made of steel and the lining on both sides are brass judging by the handle it is not native and was inserted after he rusted
ABOUT RECOVERY OF THE AX
From the beginning, I removed the handle, the handle was clogged, I had to drill a lot, then I removed the brass lining on the sides of the ax, they were promptly riveted with aluminum rivets
I made a liquid out of salt and water and used 12v to get rid of the rust
Also, with the help of a file, I corrected all the irregularities on the ax and made a hole for the handle even
After I soldered the new brass plates that I carved off-screen and filed them

I made a new handle from a piece of red or very similar to mahogany if someone knows what kind of wood write to me I found it in the attic of an old house and I don’t know what kind of wood it is soft and pleasant to work with
